there is an issue which has been discovered a while ago while testing
which killed txpower to 0dbm once scanning is triggered in AP mode
on QCN9074 based chipsets if 6 Ghz is in use.
ath11k_wmi_send_vdev_set_tpc_power must be set in AP mode in the same
way is it is for STA as it is implemented in ath12k and in the
qsdk version for ath11k.
this patch must be considered to be backported (i discovered that issue
already 2 years ago)
